The Long, Road Home
What if the life you thought was trying to break you was actually preparing you for something bigger?
My name is Ricky White, and I’ve spent 45 years finding that answer the hard way.
I’ve been homeless.
I’ve lost people I loved.
I’ve watched addiction destroy lives.
I’ve lived with pain.
I’ve made decisions I’m not proud of.
I’ve made mistakes that changed the people around me.
And I’ve come damn close to dying more than once.
One motorcycle ride changed everything.
60 miles per hour… to a dead stop.
A ruptured aorta.
Broken ribs.
A fractured neck.
An open abdomen.
Ten days later, I walked out of the hospital.
But surviving wasn’t the hardest part.
Figuring out what to do with the life I was given afterward was.
This book is about that journey.
The people who shaped me.
The people I lost.
The mistakes I made.
The places I ran to.
The places I eventually came home to.
The memories I thought I had forgotten.
And the lessons I had to learn the hard way.
But here’s the thing…
The story isn’t finished.
I’m still writing it.
I’m still remembering things I haven’t thought about in decades.
I’m still uncovering pieces of my past.
I’m still trying to understand how all those miles, mistakes, losses, close calls, and second chances turned me into the man I am today.
And I want you here while it happens.
This community isn’t just about following a book.
It’s about following a life.
You’ll see the stories before they become pages.
You’ll see the memories as they come back.
You’ll see the hard truths, the ridiculous stories, the lessons, the failures, the victories, and probably a whole lot of shit I probably shouldn’t admit publicly. 😂
Because I don’t know exactly where this road ends.
But I know one thing…
I’m not done traveling it.
Welcome to the journey.
